On a linux-box (debian sid) future mail server, with postfix 0.0.20010329.S
version I have:

mowgli:/tmp# postconf -v -l
flock
fcntl
dotlock

Actually Is configured for delivering the email in maildir format,
in /home/username/Maildir/ directory on a reiserfs sw raid1 partition.

Is the "better" (please note the ") solution ?

Where I can find documentation for tuning the system and/or study
if the Maildir option is a good idea ?

Thanks in advance
